Lille defender Sven Botman completes Medical ahead of premier League move
Newcastle United are just getting started with another big move for last two season Ligue 1 Champions defender Sven Botman.
Head Coach Eddie Howe’s makes defensive options his primary target this summer after acquiring the service of Nick Pope and defender Matt Target so far this summer.
The Dutch defender has been on holiday in Majorca, where Newcastle sent a private jet to collect him on Monday morning so he could undergo his medical on Tyneside.
Botman has been Eddie Howe’s No 1 defensive transfer target this summer. The club did earmark the defender as a January transfer target but negotiations with Lille have proved complicated.
They have beaten off competition from AC Milan for his signature.
A Good move for Eddie Howe side, as far as defensive duties is concerned.
